The Purpose of a Cardiac Risk Profile Blood Test

If you’re concerned about your heart health, you’re not alone. Heart disease causes one in three deaths in the United States and is responsible for almost $1 billion a day in lost productivity and medical costs. So that means legions of Americans should be monitoring their cardiovascular health so they can take the appropriate preventive steps. This coronary risk panel is an essential tool that delivers important insights you can use to make smart and informed healthcare choices.

What Does the Cardiac Risk Profile Measure?

The coronary risk profile test measures the three different kinds of lipids found in the blood: LDL cholesterol (or “bad” cholesterol because it raises your risk of heart disease), HDL cholesterol (also called “good” cholesterol because it clears LDL cholesterol from the arteries), and triglycerides (fat that increases your risk of blocked arteries and blood vessels). This test also measures total cholesterol, which factors in all the types of cholesterol in your blood. These markers are important because there aren’t any symptoms associated with high cholesterol, so a blood test is the best way to get those numbers.

Who Should Take a Coronary Risk Profile Test?

You should take this test if you are concerned about heart disease and atherosclerosis, which is the narrowing and hardening of the arteries due to a buildup of cholesterol and plaque. This makes it harder for blood to pump through the heart and raises the risk of plaque breaking off, and the blockage could lead to a heart attack or stroke. The cardiac risk profile test is also recommended if you have a high risk of heart disease, such as a family history of this condition.

Coronary Risk Profile Blood Test Preparation

You will need to avoid eating for eight to 12 hours prior to giving your blood sample.
